Yeah, but I figured if everyone else could whine a little, then so could I :-)
And yeah, John, I did find some LCM352 100mw Cisco gear for a great price 
($155) and an Avaya 24 dbi antenna for $136, but work has gone a sour 
recently, and hoarding cash reserves is the rule for the near term future, 
so I guess I live with POTS, and pretty poor POTS at that!
